The Beheading Of A King(originale) |
A mighty fleet came across the strait |
But Erik was prepared |
Five hundred Germans had come to his aid |
On horseback with their spears |
The fleet was carrying two thousand men |
Eager to draw blood |
But as they were about to land |
Erik released his heards |
One thousand men and five hundred horsemen |
Came charging down the beach |
When the sea-king saw this force |
He gave order to retreat |
All obeyed except one ship |
It held the king’s own son |
He despised the thought of flight |
And attacked on his own |
The Danish fleet had to turn around |
They charged King Erik’s men |
But it was too late to save his son |
His life was already spent |
The fighting continued bloody and fierce |
And the bloodshed was immense |
Two thousand warriors died that day |
Most of them were Danes |
The Danish king was captured |
Most of his guards were dead |
For a ransom he was released |
Then his people took his head |
(traduzione) |
Una potente flotta si imbatté nello stretto |
Ma Erik era preparato |
Cinquecento tedeschi erano venuti in suo aiuto |
A cavallo con le loro lance |
La flotta trasportava duemila uomini |
Desideroso di prelevare sangue |
Ma mentre stavano per atterrare |
Erik ha rilasciato i suoi ascoltatori |
Mille uomini e cinquecento cavalieri |
È venuto a caricare lungo la spiaggia |
Quando il re del mare vide questa forza |
Ha dato l'ordine di ritirarsi |
Tutti obbedirono tranne una nave |
Teneva il figlio del re |
Disprezzava il pensiero del volo |
E ha attaccato da solo |
La flotta danese ha dovuto invertire la rotta |
Hanno accusato gli uomini di re Erik |
Ma era troppo tardi per salvare suo figlio |
La sua vita era già trascorsa |
I combattimenti continuarono sanguinosi e feroci |
E lo spargimento di sangue è stato immenso |
Quel giorno morirono duemila guerrieri |
La maggior parte di loro erano danesi |
Il re danese fu catturato |
La maggior parte delle sue guardie erano morte |
Per un riscatto è stato rilasciato |
Poi la sua gente gli ha preso la testa |
